"Richmond The picturesque colonial village of Richmond, just 25 kilometers (15 miles) northeast of Hobart in the Coal River Valley, is packed full of history. Meander through the Georgian-style village’s quaint streetscapes with craft shops, antique stores, and cafés along the main drag; pay a visit to Richmond Gaol to get a sense of how brutal convict life was; and stop for the obligatory photo at the stone arches of Richmond Bridge, the oldest bridge in Australia."
